Porous interconnected hydroxyapatite (HA) and HA/tricalcium phosphate (TCP) (60/40) ceramics are promising materials for hard tissue repair. However, the mechanical properties of these materials have not been accurately determined under weight-bearing conditions. In this study, newly developed HA and HA/TCP (60/40) ceramics were used with intramedullary fixation in segmental bone defects of rabbits. Early radiological, histological, densitometric and biomechanical changes were evaluated. The mean radiological grade of healing and bonding to bone was higher in HA/TCP (60/40) ceramics than that of pure HA ceramics but the difference was not statistically significant. The densities of both implanted ceramics improved with time, supported by the histological evaluation of bone matrix ingrowth into ceramic pores, whereas the densities at the bone-ceramic interface decreased gradually. Flexural resonant frequencies and three-point bending strength increased, revealing an increase in mechanical stability during this early critical time interval where implant and/or bone-implant interface failures occur frequently. It can be concluded that both HA and HA/TCP (60/40) ceramics have a limited application in the treatment of load-bearing segmental bone defects but did not fail at the early stages of implantation.

The Optimization of Dilute Acid Hydrolysis of Cotton Stalk in Xylose Production
AKPINAR, ÖZLEM; Levent, Okan; Bostanci, Seyda; Bakir, Ufuk; Yılmaz, Levent (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-01-01)
Cotton stalk, a lignocellulosic waste material, is composed of xylose that can be used as a raw material for production of xylitol, a high-value product. There is a growing interest in the use of lignocellulosic wastes for conversion into various chemicals because of their low cost and the fact that they are renewable and abundant. The objective of the study was to determine the effects of H(2)SO(4) concentration, temperature, and reaction time on the production of sugars (xylose, glucose, and arabinose) an...
A promising enzyme anchoring probe for selective ethanol sensing in beverages
Soylemez, Saniye; Goker, Seza; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2019-07-15)
A newly designed amperometric biosensor for the determination of ethanol through one-step electrochemical coating of (4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]selenadiazole-co-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid) (TBeSe-co-P3CA) on a graphite electrode is presented. It was aimed to propose a newly synthesized copolymer with enhanced biosensing properties as a novel sensor for the quantification of ethanol. The conjugated copolymer (TBeSe-co-P3CA) was prepared through electrochemical polymerization by potential cycling....
An amperometric acetylcholine biosensor based on a conducting polymer
Kanik, Fulya Ekiz; Kolb, Marit; TİMUR, SUNA; Bahadir, Muefit; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2013-08-01)
An amperometric acetylcholine biosensor was prepared by the generation of the conducting polymer poly(4-(2,5-di(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)benzenamine) (poly(SNS-NH2)) on graphite electrodes. For pesticide detection, the enzymes acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and choline oxidase (ChO) were co-immobilized onto the conducting polymer poly(SNS-NH2) films using covalent binding technique. Electrochemical polymerization was carried out using a three-electrode cell configuration via cyclic voltammetry. Characteri...
Regulatory effects of alanine-group amino acids on serine alkaline protease production by recombinant Bacillus licheniformis
Çalık, Pınar; Ozdamar, TH (Wiley, 2003-04-01)
Influences of the concentration and addition time of alanine-group amino acids, i.e. alanine, leucine and valine, on serine alkaline protease (SAP) synthesis were investigated by Bacillus licheniformis (DSM 1969) carrying pHV1431::subC in a defined medium to identify the amino acids creating intracellular reaction-rate limitation in SAP production. While the precursors of alanine-group amino acids, pyruvate and alanine, did not affect SAP production considerably within the range 0-15 mM, the addition of leu...
Growth and kappa-carrageenan immobilization of Pseudomonas dacunhae cells for L-alanine production
Çalık, Pınar; Ozdamar, TH (Elsevier BV, 1999-01-01)
Industrial production of L-alanine is accomplished from L-aspartic acid using L-aspartate beta-decarboxylase (ADL) enzyme of resting Pseudomonas dacunhae cells as the biocatalyst. This work reports on the effect of inoculation ratio, agitation rate, and pH control on the cell concentration and enzyme activity during the growth as well as the effects of different kappa-carrageenan-immobilization procedures applied to the active cells and the kinetics of the biocatalyst pellets. Although the cell concentratio...
